Hi, I'm Clay.

For the last ten years, I have been exploring, in both my professional and personal life, how to feel and do good, and how to perform and live well.

Professionally, that journey has unfolded mostly in the form of me observing and interviewing some of our highest achievers and biggest thinkers: athletes like Steph Curry and Patrick Mahomes, writers like George Saunders, Michael Pollan, and Jennifer Egan, and thought leaders like Ester Perel, Tim Ferriss, and Yuval Noah Harari. (See my writing page for a more robust list of people I’ve covered.) Personally, it has taken me deep into the worlds of running, fitness, psychology, and meditation.

Most of my work these days is spent thinking about performance. In my job as host of the podcast FAREWELL and as a regular contributor to various editorial publications, I am interested in more deeply understanding success and excellence. I study people who have achieved at a high-level or worked with high-achievers (coaches, athletes, psychologists, behavioral scientists) to explore the mental, emotional, and physical work that goes into what they do. I've also spent time as a track coach, a book consultant, and a researcher on various podcast and video projects.

Please don't hesitate to get in touch!

-- Clay
